Honey Bones

Istanbul Scramble was excellent. Coffee was great. I wish they would remove the "add tip?" feature from the EFTPOS machine. It is not part of NZ culture and it just sours the experience. It's pretty obvious it's awkward for the staff as well as the customer. Besides this one misstep, the food, coffee and service are all 5 star.

Very interesting place. Great recipes, nice balance. Chefs certainly put their heart and soul into the dishes. Ive ordered Mergez, inspired by classical Istanbul breakfasts, with lamb sausage. Great mix, very nice tzatziki. Only reason not 5/5 is that it was a little too fatty. Maybe switching to boil-roast potatoes will lessen the amount of oil. Must try lemonade. Wife tried Istanbul scrambled and that was 4.5/5. Deep fried sage is genius.

MERGUEZ & ZUCCHINI FRITTERS - must have dishes here. The merguez had the most delicious sausage rolled in the middle, complimented with roast potatos and flavoured with Mediterranean spices. The zucchini fritters were battered and fried in a ball shape. Served on a salad with a beautiful dip. Coffee was Supremes which was strong and delicious. The atmosphere was great and very busy.

We came here after the Grey Lynn markets and seeing people wait outside made us even more curious to try it out for our Brunch. The wait was around 45mins but worth the Wait!! Our oatmilk latte & Mocha was just PERFECT! The Menu is turkish fusion, our server was very sweet & great in making sure what we wanted. We had the Istanbul Scrambled eggs & Ricotta Pancake which was very yummy & filling. I would like to give a shoutout to the team, even being so busy they look after every customer very nicely with a smile :) I had initially ordered the platter but later had requested for the pancake instead, the staff was kind and took care of my request. Really appreciate that. Food & Customer service is great. Definitely recommend this cafe.

Busy but nice, halloumi bowl was delicious and so was the ricotta pancake, smoothie was a little bland sadly and I’d love to see a proper vegan section on your menu please instead of “ask the staff” Also I had to ask staff for pricing of cabinet food as not labeled. Food was the highlight and I can see why it is a popular spot

This a great little breakfast spot in the Grey Lynn part of Auckland. Coffee is on point and well priced. Flat white and long black were delicious. Their breakfast has a lot of middle eastern influences. My wife had the Cilbir eggs which was poached eggs over Greek yogurt with a chili oil, dill, and rosemary. It was a powerfully flavorful dish with a touch of heat, just enough nothing overwhelming. I had the Bones granola which was seasonal fruit, berries, and housemade granola over yogurt with honey. It was a delicious way to start the day. The staff are kind and helpful navigating the menu. Please bear with them as they are dramatically understaffed which can take a while for the orders to make it to the table but believe me it's worth the wait.
